The Socialist programme.

CHICAGO, April 1.-Emissaries from
the Socialist headquarters have had fire.
quent communications with Mayor Harri-
son to. day, and they now boldly assert
that they can show a list of 40, 900 pledged
voters for the Socialist ticket.
Joe Greenhut. the leading light Of the
Socialists, and a city employe under Har-
rison, says. History is being made very
fast Just now. You see, Chicago is a
European colony. The masses are day
laborers who do not own their business.
Three hundred firms eEploy $1,000 work
men within ten miles of the city hall. 1t
is distinctly a capitalistic city. Here the
fight is 20 be made between capital and
labor. They are now face to face, and the
time has come. Harrison is playing a
peculiar part. He was never elected by
Democrats; the Socialists mado him. He
has been honest enough to at last ac-
knowledge it. The tables have changed.
The Socialists have their own ticket.
Democrats are asked to get out Of the way;
the mayor is in a place to help them; it
has been done. Democrats will now re-
turn the compliment by voting the So.
! c~ialistic ticket. This is the understand
ing.
THE present holders of appointive Off
ces will not be disturbed. On Tuesday
next all the wheel horses of the Democ-
racy will vote our ticket, knowing thy
will share the benefits. The campaign will
cost them nothing and their old enemies
the Republicans-will go down before the
fusion ticket.
Talk about the lrish-l tell you, that
the coercion bill is making Irishmen into
wild socialists every day. We will carry
every Irish ward in Chicago. By next
Sunday the people may become desperate,
for fear of the socialists. The citizens
may rise up in a day and compel all party
lines to be dropped and demand a l union
of all citizens to defeat the socialists. If
they become alarmed at the commune,
they may do it. This is a contest between
the American m and capital. 1t

Canadian Common Sense.

OTTAWA, April Wv. F. Whitcher,
Reconnaissance of fisheries, publishes q
letter endorsing the opinion of Hon. VIM.
McDougall in regard to the construction
to be placed upon that part of the treaty
of 1918, covering the rights of American
fishermen in Canadian ports. Whitcher
says that such a thing as preventing peo-
pie from selling bait to Americans, or pre-
venting the latter from purchasing it was
never contemplated. What the trainers
of the treaty designed to do was to pre-
vent American fishermen from fishing for
bait with seines or otherwise within the
three mile limit.

HONEST COVER NMENT At ST1KE.

The Democratic party has probably never
presented worse ticket to the people Of this
city than the one they are asked to support on
Tuesday John X. Fellows, the candidate
for Distrct-Attorncy was beneficiary OF
Tweed. whose memory he still defends. In
his confession made to Attorney-Gcneral Fair
child now Secretary Of the Treasury, Tweed
said that he paid $500 to Fellows on July ! /
1871. This was after the exposure OF
Twecds robbcrics and while Fellows was
drawing salary of $4,000 as Assistant Dis
trict- AttOrncy. Fellows then advocated
Tweed election to the Senate and declared
the charges against the Boss thief to be T. se
and baselcss. Aftcrward Fellows accepted
another check from Tweed for Sj23. Ills
poker playing and reputation of note given
for gambling debt arc matters Of record in
the Supreme Court, where a suit against him
for a gambling debt is stiIl pending. His
habits and character in other respects stamp
him as probably the most unfit man for Dis
trict- Attorney that could be found among the
members of Ohc bar in this city.
Some Of the other candidates on this ticket arc
no better. Theodore w. Myers whom the bOssc
have nominated for the important Office Of Con-
trollcr was formerly whskcy dealer. who
was charged with fraud by the Government
and had his books seized. He then became a
Wall Street Spectator, got in trouble with The
Stock Exchange and was suspended as mem
Der of that body. His card playing and other
habits are as we'll known almost as those OF
MIR. Fellows. 1t is astonishing that such a
man should be nominated for this responsible
office.
Another candidate on the Democratic ticket
was indicted for manslaughtcr though never
tried. Among the legislative candidates arc
number Of Twecd's licutenants. The
audacity Of the bosses and boodlcrs in placing
such men in nomination would be astounding
II it were their purpose to try and elect them
by honest means. But such was not the intcn-
ton. They have carefully planned con-
spiracy, by which they hope to succeed with
the aid of an enormous corruption fund and
illegal votes. Careful investigation has
brought to light immense registration frauds
in the lodging-bous districts. The liquor
dealers. who are allied with the bosses and
boodlers in this scheme, have aided largely in
this work. Money contributed by the boodlcrs
and their confoderates win be used freely on
election day.
This is grave emergency that calls Tor the
earnest efforts of every good citizen in behalf

GUARD AGAINST FR1TD.

Of the groG-shops at the polls on Tuesday
Sec to it that they are stopped from buying
votes. The law gives ample opportunity fol
the detection and punishment OF the men who
try to corrupt the franchise. The bosses and
boodlcrs are bent on carrying this election by
the use Of money. The desperate determine
lion TO do this has been shown in the dearest
possible manner by TIE TRIBUNE. No add
llonal proof is needed. II it were, no evidence
could be stronger Of the plans Of these con
splratOrs to purchase votes on n great scale
than the persistent way in which they have
thrown every obstacle in the path Of the
United Labor party in its efforts to secure the
fifth inspector at each place Of election pro
vidcd for by the law passed last winter.
No one ever honestly doubted that the mean
ing Of this law was that the George party
should have the fifth inspector; but by indie
feasible trclcry, by the mcancSt and most
contemplate devices, the Democrats have sue
cccdcd in delaying the matter week after week.
and the United Labor party has thus far been
practically cheated out Of its rights The
Bosses and BoodIcrs who fought so obstinatcly
against the enforcement Of Just and proper
law betrayed in this. as in many thcr ways
their Infamous schemes to defeat the will of
the majority Of the voters Of Ncw-York. They
have been anxious all along 10 make the number
Of watchers at the polls as small as possible
and to keep away from the voting places any
additional inspectors.
They can be baked in their shameful de-
signs only by the vigilance and activity Of all
good citizens and by the kccncst and sharpcst
watch during all the hours Of election day, the
hours during which the ballots are put in and
the later hours during which they arc counted.
Don't let any Democratic fraud so undctcctcd
